Mortal Seeking Immortal

As soon as Manager Zhang finished speaking, four outer sect deacon disciples came out and stood at the front of the crowd, two of them each holding a tray in their hands.

"Hand the jade beads on the left and the tokens on the right." One of the outer deacon disciples who was writing the pen said loudly, and the servants followed the instructions and put the tokens and jade beads in their hands one after another.

Every time a servant comes forward, the deacon's disciples will carefully register that person's name, number of tokens, and number of jade beads.

Most of the handymen who came forward only had one or two tokens in their hands, and there were only three or four handymen holding more than ten tokens.

When most people had finished handing over, Ye Zhou stepped forward to take off the storage bag and poured a small pile of tokens and jade beads into two wooden trays.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were attracted.

Even Manager Zhang was slightly surprised.

"This kid is pretty good. He has mastered the Transformation Fire Bullet Technique within a year of starting. He has an extraordinary soul and a promising future!"

When everyone's tokens and jade beads were handed in, the deacon disciples quickly began to announce the results of the competition.

"First place, Ye Zhou, has fifty-five tokens and 12 jade beads."

"Second place, Zhang Lei, has thirty tokens and nine jade beads."

"Third place, Wang Fugui. Do you have dozens of tokens? Five jade beads..."

...

Manager Zhang said: "The ten of you have passed this outer disciple examination. From now on, you are our outer disciples of the Blood Spirit Sect. You must practice diligently in the future, don't be lazy, remember the sect rules, and protect us." The benefits of faction!”

The ten people who passed the assessment bowed respectfully to Manager Zhang.

"Follow the teachings!"

Manager Zhang smiled and nodded, and took out ten outer disciple tokens, a palm-sized black shield, and twenty Huangyundan pills from the storage bag on his waist.

"Collect the token. From now on, this will be the symbol of your status. With this token, you can enter and leave the sect freely. After returning to the sect, you can use this token to receive the benefits of the outer disciples in the Internal Affairs Hall."

After Manager Zhang finished speaking, the ten tokens flew towards Ye Zhou and others.

Ye Zhou took the token. It was slightly heavy and black in color, with the word "blood" engraved on the front and a ferocious ghost face engraved on the back.

The few people who got the tokens, no matter how scheming they usually were, couldn't help but show some joy on their faces at this moment.

"Outer disciple Ye Zhou, as the first person in this assessment, according to the master's wishes, this is the reward you deserve!"

After speaking, Manager Zhang waved his sleeves, and the palm-sized black iron shield flew in front of Ye Zhou. Ye Zhou took the shield respectfully, bowed respectfully to Manager Zhang, and then stepped aside.

Manager Zhang added, "This is a top-grade qi-training magic weapon, the Black Iron Shield. It is made of Tianshan Black Iron and has been refined for 7,749 days by foundation-building monks. It is impervious to ice and fire and has excellent defensive power. Make good use of this shield." Save your life at a critical moment!”

"Zhang Lei, Wang Fugui, you two are the second and third place respectively in this promotion competition. These are ten Huangyun Pills as a reward for you."

The twenty yellow cloud pills in front of Manager Zhang flew towards Zhang Lei and Wang Fugui respectively. Only then did Ye Zhou notice that the second Zhang Lei was the honest young man he met in the cave.

"Thank you, Manager Zhang!" Zhang Lei and Zhang Lei both excitedly saluted to Manager Zhang.

The assessment of outer disciples has finally come to an end.

Following Manager Zhang's order, everyone jumped on the Wutong Ruler, which quickly rose into the sky and flew quickly in the direction of the Blood Spirit Sect.

When I arrived, the space on the Wutong ruler seemed a little crowded, but now it is extra spacious.

Ye Zhou looked at the mountains, rivers and small villages on the ground.

"Those disciples who have died in the cave never imagined that the residence of the gods, which countless people call the Holy Land of the Immortal Sect, would be as cruel and cold as the Shura Hell..."

Ye Zhou's heart gradually changed after joining the Blood Spirit Cult...

…

After returning to the sect, Manager Zhang left in a hurry, and the other outer disciples and servants also left.

"I wonder where the Internal Affairs Hall is? It seems I can only ask Wu Yong."

Ye Zhou looked helplessly at the towering Nameless Peak in front of him. Although he had been to the Nameless Peak several times, he always went to a few fixed places and did not know the distribution of other areas on the Nameless Peak.

Just as Ye Zhou was about to leave for the miscellaneous affairs hall, he saw a figure running out in front of him and blocking Ye Zhou's way.

"Zhao Qiang, Senior Brother Zhao!" Ye Zhou's face changed slightly, but he didn't panic.

The person who came was none other than Zhao Xu’s brother, Zhao Qiang.

Zhao Qiang had a premonition that something bad was going to happen when he sensed that the Hundred Ghost Banner was taken away, so he kept waiting for the handyman disciples who had gone to take the assessment to return.

"Ye Zhou, right? Senior brother is here to advise you to hand over my two magic weapons honestly, otherwise... you will die without a burial place!"

Zhao Qiang's eyes flashed with an icy cold light, and the strength of the seventh level of Qi training suddenly exploded, pressing hard on Ye Zhou.

Zhao Qiang's coercion made Ye Zhou's face turn pale. He felt as if a huge boulder was pressing on his chest, and it became extremely difficult to breathe. However, Ye Zhou still showed no fear at all, but said loudly: "Senior Brother Zhao, we are all here now." You are an outer sect disciple. Could it be that you want to violate the sect’s rules? Can’t you do it here?”

With that said, Ye Zhou took out the token of the outer disciple.

Zhao Qiang snorted coldly: "Don't think that since you become an outer disciple, I can't take your life!"

As he spoke, he took out a blood-red token from his storage bag. On the token were engraved three large characters "Order of Life and Death"!

"Since you know the rules, let's meet on the stage of life and death!"

The so-called life and death platform is where the inner and outer disciples of Blood Spirit Religion resolve conflicts. As long as they get on the life and death platform, only one person can walk down alive.

Ye Zhou smiled.

"Senior Brother Zhao must be mad. You are at the seventh level of Qi training, and I am only at the second level of Qi training. How could I agree to a duel with you?"

Zhao Qiang sneered and said: "You have just joined the outer sect, so it is understandable that you don't know the specific sect rules. Senior brother is here to help you popularize them. I send disciples to spend one hundred sect contribution points every year to redeem the life and death order. You can invite another disciple of the same level to a duel on the stage of life and death every year!"

"You can indeed refuse my invitation, but you can only refuse it three times at most. The fourth time, regardless of whether you refuse it or not, I have the right to kill you directly!"

Suddenly, Ye Zhou's expression changed slightly.

He also knew that there were differences between the rules for outer disciples, the rules for inner disciples and the rules for servants, but he did not expect that there was such a one!

Zhao Qiang said: "Senior brother has been in the sect for nineteen years, and I can still afford to wait for only three years. I hope you don't die in the hands of others!"

As he spoke, the life and death order in Zhao Qiang's hand turned into a ray of light and merged into Ye Zhou's outer disciple token, and a mark with the word "death" appeared on his token.

Now that Zhao Qiang has consumed one life and death order and only needs to redeem three more in the next three years, Ye Zhou must answer the challenge.

Zhao Qiang said nothing more, sneered and waved his sleeves away.

Ye Zhou suddenly felt an invisible pressure pressing on his heart.

"Three years later, my cultivation must be far better than that of Zhao Qiang, in order to be able to defeat this person on the stage of life and death!"
